Calli were initiated from mature seeds grown on modified Murashige and Skoog (MMS) medium supplemented with 7.0 mg l(-1) (31.7 mu M) 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D) and 0.05 mg l(-1) (0.23 mu M) kinetin (Kin). Calli were maintained and proliferated by subculture at monthly intervals on MMS medium containing 4.5 mg l(-1) (20.4 mu M) 2,4-D and 0.2 mg l(-1) (0.9 mu M) Kin. Somatic embryos (SE) were induced from seed-derived calli on SE-induction medium (MMS supplemented with 2.0 mg l(-1) 2,4-D and 0.2 mg l(-1) Kin). Plantlets were regenerated from somatic embryogenic calli grown on modified SH medium supplemented with 2 mg l(-1) Kin. Using this optimized protocol, 78.6-82.3% of mature seeds of all four cultivars produced SE clusters, of which 93.5-95.3% regenerated into plants within 10 wk. The regenerants showed no phenotypic abnormalities. 收起
